Chapter 65. Knowledge Management: Set up an online Climate Portal to communicate the National Strategyto the public and international community, thereby raising awareness and facilitating knowledgesharing. This has been done successfully by India and South Korea and is particularly importantfor adaptation as all Rwandans need to take steps to become climate resilient.6. Technology: Use the Strategy to complete the UNEP Technology Needs Assessment alreadyunderway to speed up technology transfer for key sectors of the economy, particularly energy,water and agriculture.7. Infrastructure: Implement resource efficient design in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Kigaliwhich is in the first stage of construction. This will include energy efficiency lighting, energy andwater metering, wastewater recycling and recycling of other waste products. The SEZ guaranteesreliable electricity supply to businesses, and this should be generated from renewable sources. The roadmap for implementation as outlined above, can be summarised in Figure 19. Details of eachProgramme of Action are given in at the end of this Strategy and they include a simple timeline which needsto be worked out in more detail. The enabling pillars are ongoing but all need to start with a design phase inearly 2012, followed by implementation in 2013 and then operation from then onwards.Chapter 6: Roadmap to ImplementationActionsVision 2020EDPRS IIMainstreaming Sector policiesSector strategiesDistrict Development PlansUse IDP for pilot projectsEstablish FONERWAQuick Wins Energy measuring and reporting(Enabling Expand TVET programmePillars) Online Climate PortalTechnology Needs AssessmentGreen Special Economic ZoneGeothermal power generationIntegrated soil fertility managementHigh density walkable citiesBig WinsIrrigation infrastructureRobust road networkClimate CentreAgroforestry2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q3 Q4Figure 19: Timeline for mainstreaming climate change into sectors, and implementation of the quick wins and big wins6.3 Further WorkDue to the short timeframe of the development of this Strategy, extra work will be required to developthe Programmes of Action and to explore the issues of health, gender equality, private sector development,economic analyses and future scenarios.National Strategy on Climate Change and Low Carbon Development 43
